About Us

Anchor 1

At ELM Resources, we believe in developing and supporting innovative products and services for those in the private student lending community.

We focus on creating efficiencies through technology, providing unparalleled service, producing a faster way for schools to connect with lending partners, and an easier way to manage the process in order to provide the best options for their students.

How Are We Different?

Education Loan Management Resources (ELM) was established in 1994 by a group of lenders looking to improve schools' loan processing. At the time, every school had to process their loans based on each lender's system or other exclusive loan delivery systems.

ELM was created for the sole purpose of enhancing this process, and today, we are the only

not-for-profit, mutual benefit corporation serving the student loan industry and the loan providers serving those schools.

Our products include ELMOne, which empowers schools with the ability to efficiently manage private student loan processing and disbursements through a centralized system. ELMSelect offers students the ability to compare and select the loan that best fits their needs and schools the ability to create their own customized site.

"Today, ELM's core mission remains strong - to provide an unparalleled service to the higher education industry. Each day, we are laser-focused on creating efficiencies for private student loan processing. Listening to our customers and adapting to their needs are always top-of-mind."
